Really love the effect bokeh gives to a photo. Took this on a overpass by my house, almost got arrested. The police officer though I was going to jump but I assured him that I am most sane when I am behind my shutter.

You are the second person who used bokeh. I had never seen it before So I looked it up on dictionary.com
Main Entry: bokeh
Part of Speech: n
Definition: a Japanese term for the subjective aesthetic quality of out-of-focus areas of a photographic image
Example: The bokeh, or quality of the blurred image in the photograph, was described and discussed.
Thank you for the definition.
Unusual picture. BUT the story about the police officer is too funny!
I have a particular love for the bokeh of my Voigtlander 1.5 Nokton. I would give almost anything for a Voigtlander/Pentax or Voigtlander/Nikon adapter. The Pentax 55mm 1.4 Super Takumar is almost as good.
